Sure, playing chess needs intelligence, dedication, and good chess players are smarter than an average person. But it’s waaaay exaggerated in movies. I’m a math researcher, and in any movie, my department will be full of chess geniuses. But in reality, only about 10% of them even play chess.

    Ye gods, I’m not reading that wall. I tried to make it clear that I was not interested in continuing this interaction but let’s make it a bit more explicit: this conversation is over. You’ve been tremendously abrasive (hence my response in kind) and refuse to take the hint. I’m blocking you now. Best of luck in future interactions, I hope they’re more pleasant than this one.

      You can just not reply. It’s weird you keep up typing replies to me and then get mad when I respond.

      Do you need the last word that badly?
